KChanDreams: All right, this story got one update.

Angel: It's really nothing.

KChanDreams: (crying) Do you always have to bring me down?

Angel: Please act like your age.

KChanDreams: (Recovers) Well anyway, please read this chapter even though it is short.

Chapter 2: Who are you?

"Captain Kansas, the storm has cleared."

A sixteen-year-old girl walked out of a small building. She had long raven black hair; crimson red eyes; light brown skin; wearing long black pants that had a knife to the leg, leather black boots, short sleeved black shirt, a long blue coat with a gold chain dangling in the side pocket, one blade in its sheath that had a dragon emblem dangling from the end of the handle tied to her back, and a belt with two hand guns on both sides.

She looked at the soldier that had told her the news and said, "Thanks for telling me, but I can see for myself soldier."

"Sorry captain Kansas."

The girl, who seemed to be known as Kansas, smirked at the soldier and said, "Don't be." The soldier blushed and nodded.

"Aren't you kind, Patricia?"

The girl, who was now addressed as Patricia, looked at the source of the voice only to see another soldier with an eye patch on his left eye and short black hair in similar clothing, but with only one gun on his side.

"What are you doing here, Jacob?" asked Patricia in an annoyed voice.

"I just wanted to check on my dear captain Patricia Kansas," he said in an annoying baby voice. Patricia bonked his head with the ball of her fist and said, "Act like your age, Jacob."

Jacob rubbed his head as he chuckled. He looked at Patricia with a smile and said, "I really did want to check on you. That storm was pretty big. It also forced all of us indoors." Patricia nodded.

"It was pretty bad."

Jacob held a hand to Patricia and said, "You're finished with your work for the day, so let's head back." Patricia crossed her arms.

"I never said I was finished," said Patricia. Jacob looked at the soldier, who was watching them the whole time, and asked, "Is she finished with today's documents?"

"Yes sir. Captain Kansas finished them while the storm was going on," said the soldier happily. Jacob smirked and looked back at Patricia.

"Shall we?" asked Jacob in an almost mocking tone. Patricia sighed and nodded. As they passed the soldier, Patricia gave the soldier a quick glare that sent shivers down his spine.

While they were walking, they suddenly noticed something in their path. They approached it and saw a short boy with blonde hair in a red coat unconscious.

"I guess this guy got caught up in the storm," said Jacob. Jacob nudged the boy with his foot.

"Maybe he's dead," said Jacob worriedly. Patricia stared down at the boy.

"Let's see," said Patricia. Patricia immediately placed her hand on one of her guns.

What happened? That's right. I got caught up in a storm in the ruins. I guess I survived, but I feel so tired.

Edward suddenly heard a click and flung his eyes open only to see a barrel of a gun pointed at his head. Edward cringed at the sight wondering if he should scream.

Patricia stared down at Edward's cringing face with her gun pointed at his forehead and shrugged.

"He's alive. Too bad," said Patricia as she withdrew her gun. Edward broke out of his shock and screamed, "What do you mean too bad and why did you point a gun at me?!"

Jacob chuckled and said, "Looks like Shorty really is alive." Edward glared at Jacob and punched him across the face.

"Who are you calling so short that you need a magnifying glass to see?!" screamed Edward with fire in his eyes. Jacob gripped his cheek.

"I never said that and why is your punch so darn hard?" asked Jacob in pain.

Edward was panting in his anger, but then paused. He looked at his surroundings. He was standing in the middle of what looked like the ruins, but in perfect condition as if they were brand new. He looked toward Patricia and Jacob filled with confusion.

"Where am I?" asked Edward. Patricia crossed her arms and said, "You're in central, why do you ask?"

"Central?"

Edward suddenly felt his strength leave him and fell back to the ground. Jacob, who had a red mark on his left cheek, walked to Edward and looked down at him.

"Looks like he feinted," said Jacob. He looked back at Patricia and asked, "What should we do with him?"

Patricia stared down at Edward's unconscious form and said, "We'll take him to the infirmary and then figure out who he is." Jacob nodded and attempted to pick up Edward. Jacob gave a grunt as he placed Edward's left arm around his neck.

"This guy is pretty heavy," said Jacob. Patricia went to Edward's right side and placed her hand on his right arm. Patricia's eyes widen in surprise. She lifted up Edward's sleeve and saw his automail glistening.

"Automail, but how?" whispered Patricia.

"Did you say something, Patricia?" asked Jacob. Patricia pulled Edward's sleeve back down.

"Everything's just fine," said Patricia as she flung Edward's arm around her shoulder. Jacob and Patricia began to walk off with Edward hanging to them.

Edward slowly began to awake. When he opened his eyes, he found himself staring up at a white ceiling. Edward blinked in confusion. He sat up and looked at his surroundings. Edward placed a hand to his forehead.

"What a weird dream?"

"Did you grow taller or something?"

Edward gasped in surprise and looked to his side only to see Patricia leaning against the wall with her arms crossed staring at him. Edward recognized her as the girl with the gun, but took more notice in the color of her eyes and skin.

"Ishvalan?"

Patricia smirked and said, "That's right, but only half." Patricia approached Edward making him move slightly in the bed he was on. She leaned toward his face making Edward feel uncomfortable.

"You're not from around here are you?" asked Patricia. Edward smirked at her and said, "Depends. Tell me where I really am."

Patricia pulled away from his face and said, "I already told you. You're in Central. Does your shortness affect your brain as well?"

Edward growled and screamed, "Who are you calling short?!" Patricia smirked.

"You. And I am going to keep calling you short, if you don't tell me who you are and where you are from, SHORTY," said Patricia exaggerating on Shorty. Edward growled trying his best not to beat Patricia.

"My name is Edward Elric, age fifteen, from Central," said Edward with a pout. Patricia crossed her arms.

"Do you expect me to believe that? I've been in Central for a long time and I have never once seen you, Elric-San," said Patricia filled with suspicion.

"Just call me Edward and I haven't met you even once either. I think I would have noticed an Ishvalan like you hanging around here. Who are you?" asked Edward as he looked at Patricia.

"I'm only half Ishvalan, Edward, and my name is Patricia Kansas, age sixteen. You can call me Patricia."

Edward and Patricia stared at each other. Patricia cleared her throat and said, "I don't believe that you are from Central, so tell me where you are really from."

"Why don't believe me?!" screamed Edward. Patricia grabbed his right arm and pushed up his sleeve revealing his automail arm.

"In Central, I am the only one who knows how to make automail, so how is it that you have automail, when we haven't even met once," said Patricia seriously. Edward yanked his arm away from her.

"My friend Winry made it for me a long time ago and what do you mean you are the only one in Central who knows how to make automail? There are other people around Central who know how to make automail," said Edward seriously. Patricia smirked.

"You really aren't from around here," said Patricia. Edward glared at her.

The door to the room suddenly swung open revealing a soldier in a blue uniform.

"Fullmetal," called out the soldier.

Patricia and Edward looked at the soldier at the same time and answered, "Yes?" Patricia and Edward fell silent. They looked at each other confusingly.

"Did you just answer?" asked Patricia. Edward nodded and asked, "Why did you answer when he called for me?"

"What are you talking about? Fullmetal is me," said Patricia as she pointed as herself. Edward blinked in confusion.

"No, Fullmetal is me," said Edward as he pointed at himself. Patricia, Edward, and the soldier were completely confused.

Patricia suddenly grabbed hold of Edward's left wrist and said, "Tell me your name, along with your title and age; where you are from, and where you got your automail." Edward nodded as he felt Patricia put pressure on his wrist.

"My name is Edward Elric the Fullmetal Alchemist, age fifteen. I am from Central and got my automail from Winry Rockbell, my friend," said Edward slowly. Patricia then released his wrist and placed a hand on her forehead.

"There was no change in your pulse, so you are telling the truth, but this makes no sense," said Patricia confusingly.

The soldier waved at Patricia and said, "Fullmetal, after you are done with this boy, please see King Cedric." Patricia nodded. The soldier left the room.

Edward stared in the direction the soldier left and gasped in surprise.

"Did he just say King Cedric?" asked Edward. Patricia nodded.

"That's right. I serve under King Cedric. He made me captain of one of the teams in Central and gave me the title Fullmetal Alchemist."

Edward began to turn pale making Patricia confused.

"You OK, Edward boy?" asked Patricia. Edward clenched his covers and said, "I serve under King Bradley."

"King Bradley? I heard of all the kings in Central in the past and I have never heard of a King Bradley," said Patricia as she thought to herself.

Edward looked toward the window and remembered the storm he was in. He remembered the ruins and looked at Patricia.

"Do you have a watch with you?" asked Edward. Patricia nodded and pulled the gold chain hanging from her pocket. Edward's eyes widen in surprise. Dangling from Patricia's hand was a gold watch with a Phoenix engraving on it. Edward placed a hand to his mouth in disbelief.

"Is something wrong?" asked Patricia as she swung her watch in her hand.

"Past."

"Excuse me?"

"I'm in the past," whispered Edward in disbelief.
